i WAS laid aside for notice Lncxt week, but

Clinton is growing town, and its citizens
arc enterprsins and pushing aud SEQ no
reason why the EaicrPriSc should not be n
success. We can safely warn the business
men Of Clinton that if they do not support the
EHtc7rjsr under its present worthy and able
management, they will never have SO good n
paper published there u:tcrwari.
g-ay" The following ntralictory statemc nts
Of two respectable newspapers published in the
| good old town Of Camden, must DC fun for those
who pcrsistcntly contend that newspapers
will lie under great mistakes sometimes:

goods TO railroad man last Tuesday; another
| another sold over $50 worth; and
| Cral stores in town receive from $50 to $500
| per wcoE for goods sold to wurkmcn engaged
! on the road. 1t is beginning to tell on bust
ness already, and will continue with increas-

WHAT BEcoMEs OF lr ?--Wcll, work on the
| new road has been going on now for more
| than n month and the weekly payment to en-
plOyCcs will, We understand, run from $500 to
800, but thus far we have failed to find any
one who says thot there Is any more money in
circulation than usual. As Il matter of fact, Il
majority Of the business men assert that they
have never before seen money ScarCCr than it
is now; the cash trade was never more limited
than il is ut this time, and 10 take It all in ALL
they arc myStiticG rs to what becomes Of the
outside cash that is paid to the hands on the
| new road each week. The question is, What
becomes of the money. Iih~hn Jo"rnal.

Miss Graham always expressed great dread
